MBCS character set problem

Hi,

I created a MFC Smart Device Application in Visual Studio 2005. Default the project was created with "Use Unicode Character Set". I switched to "Use Multi-Byte Character Set" but at compile time I get the following error.

Q:\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\ce\atlmfc\include\afxv_w32.h(227) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'mbctype.h': No such file or directory

It means that MFC 8.0 for Windows CE doesn't supports MBCS character set, or is there a workaround to use the MBCS character set

    Hi

    Multi byte char set is mutually exclusive to Unicode and win CE supports only Unicode only.

    This option of setting the MBCS should have not been there in the general properties. I will raise a bug against this .
